The kick-off meeting of the European project TRANSFORM² was successfully held from January 29 to 31, 2025, at the premises of the University of Patras. The meeting brought together the project partners from various European countries, representing universities, research institutions, private organizations, and local government authorities.
The TRANSFORM² project is part of the Horizon Europe program and focuses on the enhancement and transformation of existing Near-Fault Observatories (NFOs). These observatories aim to improve the understanding of earthquake mechanics and unveil the structural complexity of seismogenic faults. This objective will be achieved through the integration of cutting-edge technological solutions, such as machine learning, AI and fiber-optic-based innovative sensors.
During the meeting, participants presented the project’s objectives, established the implementation timeline, and discussed the initial actions and responsibilities of each partner. On the final day, an educational field visit took place at Psaromyta Cape, where participants attended a lecture on the area’s tectonic and seismic activity. The visit concluded with an on-site tour of the ongoing tunnel construction project in the Psathopyrgos area, where IPGP has installed an optical long baseline tiltmeter to monitor local tectonic activity.
